Summary "The Tobacco Tiller: A Tale of the Kentucky Tobacco Fields" by Sarah Bell Hackley is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story focuses on the lives of tobacco farmers in Kentucky, primarily through the experiences of Ephriam Doggett and his family, exploring the struggles and complexities of agricultural life, particularly the cultivation of tobacco. The opening of the novel introduces Mr. Ephriam Doggett and his family as they navigate the challenges of raising tobacco. In a light-hearted yet serious conversation among family and guests, they discuss the effects of weather on their crops, the state of their living conditions, and their hopes for better prospects. Key themes emerge, including the hardships of farm life, the dynamics within the family and the community, and elements of humor and camaraderie that reflect their resilience. Hackley's vivid characterization and setting establish a rich context for the unfolding narrative within Kentucky's tobacco culture. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
